Task Response

The report attempts to address the task by describing the trends for all four countries. However, there are significant issues with data accuracy and clarity. The report frequently confuses 'percentage' with 'total number' and misinterprets the data points (for example, stating the Philippines declined to 40% in 2010 and will reach 55% in 2040, which contradicts the visual description). To improve, ensure that you are reporting the actual values shown on the graph rather than calculating changes incorrectly, and maintain a clear distinction between the percentage of the population and the population count itself. Additionally, work on grammatical accuracy and sentence structure to ensure the trends are communicated clearly.

Coherence & Cohesion

The report follows a basic structure, but the progression of ideas is often interrupted by grammatical errors and awkward phrasing. While there is an attempt to use cohesive devices (e.g., 'Overall', 'In the context of', 'On the other side'), they are not always used naturally or correctly. To improve, focus on using a wider variety of linking words to connect sentences smoothly and ensure that each paragraph has a clear, logical focus. Avoid starting sentences with lowercase letters and ensure punctuation is used to separate distinct ideas.

Lexical Resource

The vocabulary is quite limited and repetitive. There are several spelling errors (e.g., 'predication', 'Philppines', 'darmatically', 'rised') and incorrect word choices (e.g., 'total percentage number', 'aimed to reach'). To improve, work on building a bank of academic synonyms for describing trends, such as 'soared', 'climbed', 'fluctuated', or 'projected to'. Ensure that you use the correct forms of words (e.g., 'predicted' instead of 'predicated'). Boost vocabulary complexity to elevate the overall score.

Grammatical Range & Accuracy

Grammatical errors are frequent and significantly impact the readability of the report. There are issues with tense consistency (mixing past and present when describing historical data), subject-verb agreement, and sentence structure (e.g., 'it was grow by 85%'). There is also a lack of control over complex sentence structures. To improve, focus on mastering basic tenses - specifically using the past tense for completed years and future forms (e.g., 'is expected to', 'is projected to') for the prediction years. Practice using relative clauses to combine ideas more effectively.
